    Don't sit.
    sitting is the pre-step for sleeping.

    hare krishna to all....

    i would like to know if tea has something good and energetic to give and increases concentration, then whats harm in it.....

    chemical which are founded in tea are natural so hw they can be contaminated for consumption.  Though it is true that excess of it increases stomach problem but excess of everthing even food can cause harm to human body...

    sorry i m not arguing but would like to know the real fact......

    sorry if i offend someone, forgive me........

      Hare Krsna!

       

      Traté de acostarse temprano en la noche preferiblemente dormir (6) horas y

      cantar las rondas a esta hora de Brahma- Muhurta, una vez este regulado

      toda cansancio desaparecerá y entonces el deseo de servir al Guru, Krsna

      y los devotos brotará de su corazón y se sentirá feliz y despierto. Hari- Bolo!

      thank you Prabhu ji.. for your kind reply but there are days especially during continuous exams, when we can not afford sleep for more than 3-4 Hours. formerly, I used to take tea, coffee and keep myself awake. but now during normal times I am avoiding them and taking sleep of 6-7 hours. but can we take tea for such exceptional times when it is really unavoidable, and ensure not to make it a habit. I apologise for being persistently  repetitive.

      Hare KRISHNA
